More buildings preserved for new gospel work

Dagenham

A record four transfers of church buildings to the Church Growth Trust were completed on a single day in May – adding to the growing number of church premises preserved for gospel work. 

The Church Growth Trust (CGT) secures independent church properties, then matches them with congregations and church plants needing premises in which to meet. The CGT was established in 2010 after separating from Stewardship in order to develop this work. 

On 1 May, three properties were gifted to CGT and one was purchased, bringing the total of properties owned by the charity to around 140. CGT chief executive Giles Arnold said: ‘Usually, around two a months are gifted to the charity.’
